It also had a few disasters where steam flooded apartments because of corroded valves.I'm considering doing it that way. 

Greg,I am in NJ and when I bought my first 4 family it was 1 old steam boiler that was tough to keep managable.

hi guys,I am UC for a property that uses steam heat.

Hi guys,Has anyone dealt with removal of asbestos on steam piping mains?

Hey Dave,I just caught your asbestos example, funny you should mention this as I am under contract for a beautiful 2 fam built in 1932 with a steam heating system and you guessed it the steam mains in the basement are covered in asbestos insulation.The seller actually the executor (ths is an estate sale) has agreeed to remediate and reinsulate with fiberglass which is what I asked for.'

Having said that, I'm a big believer of getting the LLC if you are going full steam ahead.

I'd say, in reality, they are hard to find as many talk a good talk to land the job, usually providing free residency, but they seem to run out of steam just as you probably have.

(Note to all - don't buy a house with the furnace in the crawl unless you're getting a super deal).My tenant went on to say that the furnace was making a "gurgling" sound and the entire house was filled with steam like a sauna.

The anti-gun movement that picks up steam every time a tradegy such as Sandy Hook takes place, is simply an emotional response that not only does not present logical solutions, it dominates the conversation which should focus on the breakdown of our society.Government may regulate the type and use of arms, but they may not infringe upon our right to own them.

I guess sometimes people just need to blow off steam about unrelated things...so I guess that makes us their sounding board/semi-therapist. haha.
